and the bad sides?
obviously they must be there as well. but now, as i'm writing this, they are much more difficult to come up with, and when i do, i immediately find a way to justify and lessen them -- not surprising, someone might say.
but let's see -- for me, the worst thing to come along is the pain i at times feel. i'm not talking about the mild muscle pain that one might experience after a 30km run or even the blisters under your toe nails after a marathon; these are great (the blisters not so much but you get the point). i mean the kind of pain that prevents you from running, at times even from walking properly; the pain you get when there is something broken or seriously agitated in you. this pain is not a negative issue because of the pain itself, of course, but because of the outcome of it -- an anxious, frustrated and easily annoyed human being thanks to the deprivation from running and the excruciating knowledge you brought about it on yourself. other forms of exercise exist, naturally, but it is always the next best thing; anyone who shares my passion for running knows exactly what i mean.
so the worst side of running is not being able to run? i'm sure that makes sense on some level.
